Part VI: How to beat Perak – Attack their weak spots and weakest links

SPONSORED LINKS

We have come to the sixth segment of this highly popular topic on this blog. In the previous segment, I talked about launching fast attacks and counterattacks down the flanks to catch Perak with their Joma soccer shorts down. That was a very good tip that if used to perfection can easily break Perak and any other soccer teams obsessed with a three-man defensive lineup (soccer formations such as 3-5-2, 3-4-1-2, 3-4-3 and 3-1-4-2) to pieces.

Today, let’s talk about taking advantage of Perak’s weak spots and weakest links in the team. I got this tip directly from a very successful local soccer coach who had a number of successful outings against Perak. His record against Perak was impressive, winning a number of matches against them with convincing results (Perak was brought down to the ground pathetically)!

This phenomenal local coach had a weird but excellent approach in his soccer tactics. You guys may find it quiet shocking! He would analyze the current form of soccer players on the opposing soccer teams such as Perak and picked out their weakest links. What do I mean by weakest links? Simple, soccer players like any other athletes have their ups and downs. Some even have the tendency (more like habits) to make clumsy mistakes; inconsistency is their regular contributions to the team.

After determining the opposing team’s weak spots and weakest links, the highly successful local coach would go to his drawing board and cook up soccer strategies, set pieces and tactics for his team based upon his findings. He would instruct his team to launch attacks and counterattacks through the opposing team’s weak spots and weakest links.


His soccer tactics are pretty nasty but ingenious! No wonder Perak had a terrible record against his team! Even a smart British coach like Steve Darby has no answer for his clever tactics.

I did asked this great local coach about who to his opinion can be defined as Perak’s weak spots and weakest links in the new MSL 2007-2008 soccer season. He was hesitant to share with me his opinions at first but my persistence had bowled him over. He gave me a few names; not surprisingly the names were Ahmad Shahrul Azhar, Danial Fadzly, Mohd Khairi, Chan Wing Hoong and Mohd Noor Hazrul. If you study past soccer matches between Perak and his team, you can see why most of their attacks and counterattacks were concentrated and focused on certain spots and links in Perak’s soccer team. :-)

There you go guys, use this tactical approach wisely and you can beat not only Perak but also any other soccer teams quiet easily. The keys here are faith in your tactics and persistence, just like what the great local had said to me one time ago.

Duke,

Your strategies looks good on paper. It looks like a pincer German Blitzkrieg attack on the opponents flanks.

My questions are:-

1. Do Selangor have the human resources (players) to play that roles.

2. Having Perak weaknesses exposed by you and other coaches, do you think Perak will not plug the so called weaknesses during the game?

3. Would Coach Dollah used that strategies to benefit him? Coach Dollah is well known to be stubborn.

Hi there Yob Latino...

Answers to your questions:

1. Do Selangor have the human resources (players) to play that roles.

The answer is yes. They have Elie Aiboy now running havoc on the right flank and possibly a few other players for their left flank.

2. Having Perak weaknesses exposed by you and other coaches, do you think Perak will not plug the so called weaknesses during the game?

Please do not consider such exposes as something that will weaken Perak. On the contrary, such exposes will only make Perak a better team. I think Steve Darby should appreciate such feedbacks, giving him the opportunity to strengthen his team from all possible angles. Of course, I want Steve Darby to plug such weaknesses from being manipulated by our opponents in the future.

3. Would Coach Dollah used that strategies to benefit him? Coach Dollah is well known to be stubborn.

My dear friend, Dollah Salleh have used such strategies to amazing successes in the past, winning an incredible treble! So did Kedah.

Dollah Salleh could not adopt his highly successful tactics in the early stage of the MSL 2007-2008 soccer season because he did not have the right kind of players in his team.

Things changed now after Elie Aiboy is back in the team. No doubt Dollah Salleh will adopt his favorite 4-3-3 formation some time soon, perhaps even tomorrow in the game against Perak in Ipoh.
